RE: Pylons
Which makes it worse if I understand electricity right?
Its when you are INSULATED you are safe, that's why birdies don't get cooked when they land on pylons, but if they are somehow grounded they are toast.

Like when its safe inside a car hit by lightning cos the tyres insulate you from the ground and the leccy passes round you in the body of the car, or like if you use insulated tools on live cables, but once you are grounded you are toast.

Oh yes and remember that the " kill zone" for want of a better term can be up to 50 feet from the point of impact as numerous soccer players have found out when playing during a storm.
Someone with a knowledge of leccy will set us straight Smile
